Lu Ning brought Ah Fu back to the restaurant and ordered roast chicken and rice.
"Aning, why did you come to the county alone?"
"I'm here to buy something."
"How about you, why did you come to the county alone?"
"I heard that the county is a good place for people to eat, so I came here to give it a try."
The two chatted while eating.
After eating, Lu Ning was not in a hurry to go back, but instead wandered around the county town with Ah Fu.
Especially the various stalls on the roadside made Lu Ning feel very novel.
After a while, Lu Ning stopped at a stall selling books.
The owner of the book stall is a scholar who copies and sells his books. At this time, there are some customers standing next to the book stall.
Lu Ning glanced at it casually, then picked up a book and started reading.
"An Ning, are you literate?" Ah Fu was a little surprised to see Lu Ning flipping through books.
He remembered that Lu Ning probably hadn't read any books.
"She's pretty good at it." Lu Ning said casually while looking at it.
Lu Ning was holding a book called "Martial Arts Dynasty" in his hand, which generally introduced the history of this world.
Obviously, this world is not any world that Lu Ning knows. Even the imperial court is a martial arts dynasty that uses force to rule the country. And the emperor who is currently in power is one of the best martial arts masters in the world.
"Eastern White Dragon." Lu Ning remembered the emperor's name.
"Both have the same surname: Dongfang. I wonder if it has anything to do with Dongfang Aoki." Lu Ning always felt that Dongfang Aoki's identity was not simple. Now that he saw that even the emperor had the surname Dongfang, he couldn't help but connect the two.
This world is ruled by force, so there are many martial arts sects.
Even official positions are based on the sect recommendation system. Those who are recommended from various sects can become a high-ranking official, and their strength goes without saying.
A powerful warrior can form a nation.
A powerful warrior can easily guard a large county by one person.
What surprised Lu Ning was that there seemed to be wild monsters like mountain spirits appearing in this world. It is recorded in the book that in the past, the area was wild and there were many mountain spirits and wild monsters. It was Emperor Wu who led the masters of various sects to kill various mountain spirits and wild monsters and drive away the ghosts, thus opening up the huge Wu Dynasty.
However, this is similar to the earth’s myths, history and legends, and I don’t know whether they are true or false.
But since there is martial arts in this world, Lu Ning can't help but believe that these things should be real.
"Hey, kid, do you want to buy it? If not, put it down." The stall owner saw Lu Ning holding the book and reading it for a long time. Seeing that he had no intention of buying it, he couldn't help but waved to him.
Judging from how Lu Ning and Ah Fu were dressed, it seemed that he had only given up to them by not chasing Lu Ning away until now.
Having read almost everything that should be read, Lu Ning put the book down with a smile.
"Afu, do you know where there is a blacksmith shop?"
"I know, I'll take you there."
Ah Fu walked in front and soon took Lu Ning to a blacksmith shop.
A strong man was forging iron at the door of the blacksmith shop. His upper body was naked and he was sweating profusely. His strong muscles were powerful.
There are many weapons such as swords, guns and sticks placed against the wall. In addition to weapons, there are even kitchen utensils for common people, which is relatively complete.
The strong blacksmith glanced at Lu Ning and the others. When he saw that they were just two waiters, he lowered his head and continued to work patiently. The sound of tinkling was endless.
Lu Ning looked at the many weapons on display, especially the swords, and felt happy.
There is no boy who doesn't like swords.
He picked up a knife, weighed it casually, and asked, "How much does this knife cost?"
"You want to buy a knife? Take the knife you are holding for three taels of silver."
When Lu Ning heard about it, he immediately felt it was too expensive.
He only has a little more than one or two in his pocket now.
"Is there a cheaper knife?"
"No, no, the cheapest one costs two taels of silver."
"What about the dagger?"
"Dagger? You
Really want to buy it? "The blacksmith stopped swinging his hammer.
"Want to buy."
The blacksmith went into the house and took out a dark dagger and came out, "This dagger is worth one tael of silver, so take it if you want it."
Lu Ning took the dagger, weighed it, and touched the blade, feeling somewhat satisfied.
"Is this dagger sharp? Can you give it a try?"
"Bring it here." The blacksmith asked for the dagger again, then took out a piece of scrap metal that looked like a kitchen knife and chopped it down with the dagger in front of Lu Ning.
"Cang~" The scrap metal was cut into pieces by the dagger. On the other hand, the dagger's blade was not damaged at all.
"One tael of silver is not expensive for you."
"Let me try." Lu Ning took the dagger and also tried cutting scrap metal.
The knife cuts one section at a time, and it is indeed sharp.
He pinched the scrap metal. It was real iron, not fake.
So Lu Ning paid a tael of silver to buy the dagger.
Buying a dagger was a last-minute idea.
Lu Ning knew the importance of carrying a weapon with him when he met the masked woman before and was injured by the opponent's dagger.
After fighting against Lieyang, he also deeply understood the advantages of weapons.
Now I see many warriors with swords in the county town, and I can't help but think of buying a sword for myself.
He originally wanted to buy a knife. After all, he is now stronger and the knife can better take advantage of his strength.
Unfortunately, the knife is too expensive and I can't afford it, so I can only settle for the next best thing.
But this dagger is not bad, and Lu Ning is quite satisfied with it.
He sheathed the dagger and put it in his arms.
"Afu, come back with me. It's still too dangerous for you to stay alone in the county."
"Will you teach me martial arts when I go back?" Ah Fu's eyes sparkled.
Now he only wants to practice martial arts.
"Okay." Lu Ning nodded.
Although he doesn't know the martial arts of this world, it's not him who has the final say on how to teach them.
He had to trick Ah Fu back first, and then he wouldn't worry about letting Ah Fu stay here alone.
"Great!" Ah Fu cheered happily, making Lu Ning jump up and down.
Lu Ning took Ah Fu to the city gate again, paid four cents and got on the mule cart.
Several more people came one after another, but they were all unfamiliar faces. The few people who came in the morning did not come again. They must have stayed in the county town.
"Drive~"
The old man drove a mule cart, pulling Lu Ning and others slowly out of the city gate.
The journey was slow and leisurely, and there were no accidents. When it was almost dark, everyone returned to Heishu Village.
Lu Ning took Ah Fu to Huangyan Village again. When they walked back to the village, it was already dark.
"Afu, where do you usually sleep at night?"
"I'm going to sleep in a ruined temple. Where else can I sleep?" Ah Fu answered casually.
He was used to using the sky as his quilt and the earth as his bed.
Lu Ning wanted to take Ah Fu home, but his current home was also very crowded, and there was no other way for the time being.
"Take these five cents first. When you are hungry, go to some house to buy something to eat." When they parted, Lu Ning put the five cents into Ah Fu's hand.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to give more, it’s not safe to give too much.
"Hey, Aning, you are the best to me." Ah Fu happily grabbed the five cents in his hand and was having a good time.
The two agreed to meet tomorrow and then separated in front of the ruined temple.
When Lu Ning returned home, it was completely dark and the house was also dark.
He pushed the door open, closed it, and went to bed.
After closing his eyes, he directly entered the system's trial space.
But he quickly withdrew again.
He deliberately chose Sun Ba for the trial, but choosing Sun Ba would cost 0.20 attribute points.
He now only has 1.10 attribute points left. Oh, no, it has now become 1.11, because eating has increased by 0.01.
but
If 0.20 trial is consumed, the spare 1 point will be used up, leaving only 0.91, which is not acceptable.
This 1 attribute point is used to save lives and cannot be wasted yet.
So Lu Ning did not choose to try.
Don't worry, wait until the attribute points increase.
----------------
The next day, after Lu Ning had eaten, he went out with his bow and arrow on his back.
Now that everyone in the family has no control over Lu Ning, they just let him go.
Lu Ning took Ah Fu directly into the mountain.
The purpose of going into the mountains is to practice archery and to make money by hunting.
"I can draw the eagle bow like the full moon, look northwest, and shoot at the wolf."
Every time he shoots an arrow, Lu Ning will think of this Su Shi poem and feel it is very powerful.
Unfortunately, there are small mountains and forests nearby. In a few days, they can only catch a few birds and rabbits, which can only fill the stomachs of two people. It is simply impossible to catch large prey.
During this period, Lu Ning also taught Ah Fu archery, but Ah Fu was too weak to draw the bow and arrow, so he could only stare in envy.
So Ah Fu could only act as a companion. Lu Ning shot the prey, and Ah Fu ran to pick it up. Ah Fu was quite happy when he found the prey.
"It seems that we should consider going into the mountains."
Only in the deep mountains can there be big prey.
When thinking about going into the mountains, the first thing Lu Ning thought of was of course his cheap would-be brother-in-law, Shi Hu.
Firstly, he doesn't know the way, and secondly, he has no experience in going into the mountains. Even if he has some strength now, he doesn't dare to go into the mountains rashly.
When Lu Ning was thinking about going into the mountains, Dongfang Qingmu and others in the other county were also thinking about going into the mountains.
Zhao's courtyard.
At this time, two people were talking in the yard, it was Dongfang Qing and Zhao Yanchun.
"I'm not late, hahahaha." A burly man walked in with a big knife.
His voice was bold and bold, and it reached their ears before anyone arrived.
"Brother Tiansheng." Seeing the visitor, Dongfang Qingmu and Zhao Yanchun raised their hands to him at the same time.
The person coming was none other than the main force this time - Pei Tiansheng.
Pei Tiansheng is the only master of Jinjin training among the three, and his strength is unfathomable.
To deal with the mountain spirit this time, we mainly have to rely on him.
